The Baoli Theatre in the city, the venue of performance, was overcrowded with audiences, and they gave loud applause and unstinted praise to the Korean performers, fascinated by their beautiful tones of songs and graceful dances.

After appreciating the performance, the chairman of the Shenzhen City People's Political Consultative Conference said that he came to know well about the world-famous Korean art and such wonderful opera could be produced thanks to the Sino-DPRK friendship.

The director of the International Liaison Bureau of the Chinese Ministry of Culture said: A number of party and state leaders of China appreciated the performance of the opera when it was going on in Beijing. This made me know well about how deep the China-DPRK friendship is. The Korean artistes presented the genuine art to us.

The vice-director of the Guangdong Provincial Cultural Department said: The Korean artistes moved Chinese to tears through representation of the Chinese work. It is not easy to do so.
